I wonder how these two would fair against Vasquez, Marquez, Lopez and Caballero.:think I have Munroe up by a couple.
Munroe's strength and attritional efforts seem to be paying off now. He would have stopped this guy long ago if he punched properly.
decent fight but neither fighter would do well at a higher level imo. Just hope the judges scores reflect a fairly closish fight overall but its been a long time since I have seen honest judges lol
Why do all fighters have to be judged against a perceived world level...I would give my right arm to have been european champion.
Have to say...good performance in the end. Martinez was quite sharp early on, better than last time, and Munroe had to weather the storm while he was punching hard. In the end it turned into an attritional battle in close, Munroe was the bigger, stronger man with the higher work-rate and better stamina. That showed up towards the end. I think they really need to get him throwing proper punches from range. Straighter punches. He needs to up his accuracy and get more leverage on them instead of this arm punching sloppiness. Keep him at European level...obviously. Looking forward to seeing Jeffries.
